Designed for nonspecialists, this multidisciplinary book provides an overview of second-order nonlinear optical characterization techniques, such as second-harmonic generation and sum-frequency generation, which can be easily implemented in any lab. Avoiding extensive mathematical details, the authors present an elementary description of nonlinear optics and include several practical examples that show how to use nonlinear optics as a versatile characterization tool. They also describe how to implement nonlinear optical techniques for specific purposes, from the determination of surface symmetry and molecular orientation to biological imaging.
